Is the fact that you can now choose between voice and text posts in the voice forum a new thing, or have I just been paying more attention lately?

They made the forum mixed, meaning you can write and talk, too.

yeah it has been there for a while, but idk when they introduced it

I like the change. It means you can just write a message if you don't feel comfortable recording your voice.

yeah, its good

@george I didn't know that you had autism. It wasn't obvious when I talked to you. Good luck dealing with that disability. It's hard already being blind and being blind and autistic is I guess 5 times harder.
I wish you good luck with your life.

thanks.

Honestly, if it's 5 minutes like on skype, it's fine as long as you know when to stop talking before the time limit.

You get a sound when you have 5 seconds left of recording allowed, so no problem.

The last music in the music Fred when I press D to check the duration, it says 6 minutes and 37 seconds, is the time limit is change last month or a couple weeks ago or something like that? And this post was made on August 29th

I guess someone is getting around the limit. Remember that you did the same when the limit was more strict.

well yes.
if elten doesn't check the size of an incomming voice message on the server side, and just on the client side, then we will be able to get arround everything.
do you know how easy it was to get arround the voice limit?
i just injected a piece of code into an elten program and that's all. just reinitialized the opus recording button class with no time limit and some additional settings.
it was surprizingly easy to do that. so it is not my folt that i hacked the system. it is pajper's falt that he didn't make server side checking on the voice limit.

for those who doesn't understand how the server side checking works:
your elten program that you install on pc, is the client. when you send a voice message with a limit, your elten client checks if the time is up and it stops the recording. it sends it to the server program to save it there.
but if server doesn't check what is comming from the client, it will save it. so i just injected some code to the client and the server doesn't give a heck what is comming. it doesn't check if a voice message was sent is very very long.

i don't use this security holl in bad reasons. but we know that someone will use it with bad purposes. so pajper must fix it. i know what bad thing is being banned from the elten or forum, so i don't use it now. i just checked how it works.

I did it last year when I attach all my Christmas songs when the time limit was 60 seconds, and I also recorded my fair release song by Beethoven and that was five minutes and 47 seconds, that's the only time I use it, most of the time I respect the time limit.
@ Bomberman, just a suggestion, instead of making multiple posts, consider editing the one you have made.

the reason i make 3 posts is because the beginnings of this posts are more important then ending. so noone will read 1 post to the end.

okay

I didn't think I'd hear even more nonsense stuff than I have heard these last few days. If a post isn't interesting, people surely won't read it until the end. However, if they see one of the posts isn't interesting, they won't read the upcoming ones in a single row either.

I usually read people's posts towards the end.

same. I'd agree with arctic moon, i'd maybe even just skip the stuff then if its in a row.
